Is there a way to draw into an iOSLAbel ? I need to draw border with round angle.

Rounded corners for the label can be done with `SetCornerRadiusXC` from @Jeremie_L iOS Design Extensions: [https://github.com/jkleroy/iOSDesignExtensions](https://github.com/jkleroy/iOSDesignExtensions)

It helps but there is no drawinto method in iOSLabel. I think I should use canvas.

If you can avoid drawing text into a canvas on iOS it is better.  
iOS has accessibility features linked to the native controls that are lost when drawing text.

Alternative solution would be a container control with a label on top of a canvas.  
Draw the borders in the canvas, let the label handle display of text.
